Wells, Maine, is planning to renovate and expand the fire substation on North Berwick Road to create a new home for Wells Emergency Medical Services (EMS), which is currently based at York Hospital. The town aims to secure a long-term location amid the merger between York Hospital and MaineHealth.

The renovation, projected to cost $4.4 million, will include new offices, sleeping quarters, and two additional truck bays. Lavallee-Brensinger Architects has been selected for the design, expected to take three to four months, with public hearings planned before a proposed vote in November.
